New and Changed Gems in Path of Exile: Trial of the Ancestors

Wait so volatility requires luck for it to not be a heavy nerf to anything outside of lightning damage?

Will the duration of wakened fury be affected by modifiers to skill effect duration?

lets say I summon a skeleton with a base duration of 20 seconds. If I have 100% increased skill effect duration, the skeleton duration is 40 seconds, so Wakened fury lasts 4 seconds base duration. Will it scale to 8 seconds with my skill effect duration, or stay at 4 seconds?

Hard snore.

Changes? what changes? where?

YUMMMM

Eh, more nope.

Corrupting Cry Support
======================
Supported Skills have 10% Increased Area of Effect
Supported Skills cost Life instead of Mana
Supported Skills have 20% Less Area of Effect
...

Why not just say "Supported skills have 10% less Area of effect" on one line. Why confobulate it over two lines to get to a resulting % effect?

Am I being daft?

So,

Volatility and an exclusively lightning based Elemental hit using the "12-link" setup with the Squire, would see a pretty heavy damage increase. You would need to use 2 combat focus gems to make it only utilise the lightning component.

As soon as you start scaling your damage off the weapon's damage - lightning strike for example - you're in the shit. Needs to take advantage of lightning damage's negligible minimum damage for it to be worth it. Otherwise, it's exclusively a heavy nerf which also takes a gem slot.

Maybe combine this with The Original Sin and yeah.

You're indirectly being daft by confusing less with reduced. 10% increase could actually have no noticeable effect on a build's AOE but EVERYONE will notice a 20% LESS modifier.

So basically they added gems to support EQ Ignite Chieftain so ascendancy it got some pourpose?

And SRS/animated weapon got boosted?

If Guardian Minion its unkillable then i can see some use of Link skills?

Also i can see the Guardian Blessing being a Boost to Golem Bomber buids.


im not that hyped srly... only thing im doubting is if to start Boneshatter jugg or Toxic Rain raider or Esnaring arrow Bleed gladiator.



PS: i can see some RF Chaos build with Original sin.

Just checking my supports on the right underneath my name
